This ozone helps form the earth's protective and the layer protects the earth from ultraviolet radiation from the sun
What is Stratospheric ozone?
TRUE OR FALSE: Chlorine in CFCs & HCFCs will dissolve in water and break down into compounds that dissolve in water, so it does rain out of the atmosphere.
What is false?
To better define leak rates and service recovery levels the EPA lists refrigerants in four liquid-phase pressure ranges at 104°F condensing temperature.
These are the ranges to Identify Low, Medium, High, and Very high Pressures?
